It serves as a centralized space for showcasing complete pages, molecules, or atoms to the business, allowing users to easily share and access design information. Reviewers have praised its ability to provide developers with necessary specifications and assets, making it a convenient reference for their work. The platform's one-stop-shop approach eliminates the clunkiness of using multiple internal systems, simplifying the process for designers and developers alike. This has been particularly beneficial when onboarding new teams, contractors, and vendors as it provides a single place for design documentation and downloadable assets. Additionally, UX Engineers have found it helpful in maintaining and developing component libraries based on the information provided by Zeroheight's Design System. Collaboration between developers and designers is enhanced through the platform's features that facilitate feedback and improve accessibility and usability. Overall, Zeroheight has successfully met the need for a comprehensive design system that streamlines workflows and enhances cross-functional collaboration.

User-Friendly Interface: Many users have praised the tool for its user-friendly interface, stating that it is easy to learn and use. They appreciate the great connectors to design software like Figma and Sketch, which make it super easy for them to keep their designs up to date.

Efficient Navigation: Several reviewers have appreciated the system's ability to automatically add navigation when adding new pages. This feature has saved them time and effort in creating and organizing their designs.

Design Tokens Functionality: Developers have expressed their satisfaction with the design tokens functionality of the tool. They find it convenient as it allows them to easily access and utilize design specifications in their projects.

Cons:

  1. Limited customization options: Some users have expressed a desire for more hands-on control over the appearance of their designs. They would like to have more flexibility in customizing spacing, padding, and even specific element colors to better suit their individual needs and preferences.
  2. Difficulty switching between boards: Users find it cumbersome and unintuitive to navigate between different zeroheight boards within the software's interface. This suggests that there may be usability issues with the board-switching functionality that need improvement.
  3. Performance issues with syncing and refreshing files: Several users have reported experiencing delays when updating design files. The slow syncing and refreshing process indicates potential performance issues within the software that should be addressed to improve efficiency and productivity for users.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
As UX Engineer I am responsible for maintaining and developing a component library as well as aiding other users in using the component library and contributing to it. The basis for the development of components is our Design System which is showcased in Zeroheight, so any work we do directly correlates to the information we get from Zeroheight. Zeroheight is filled with information by our Designers and not within my realm of work, however I am able to give feedback to our Designers from the viewpoint of a developer to improve Zeroheight and make it's contents more accessible for the contributors and UX Engineers that we have.
Pros and Cons
  • showcasing components and other topics
  • ease of seeing detailed information on components (colors, paddings, sizes etc.)
  • ease of finding information
  • possibility of going to previous versions of the design guideline
Likelihood to Recommend
For creating and maintaining a component library, it is a fantastic tool that creates an interface between Developers, UX Engineers and Designers. It is easy to get both general information about a component, but also incredibly detailed information when looking at the component on a pixel-level, where information on paddings, margins, colors, fonts etc. can be easily accessed.
Most Important Features
  • communication between designer, developer and ux engineer
  • documentation
  • a single source of truth, so that no discrepancies or misunderstandings can occur
Return on Investment
  • increased quality, as less misunderstandings or communication problems occur
  • increased speed of development, as it is a single source of truth for us. The developer can rely on the information in Zeroheight being correct so that he doesn't have to iterate his code again and again.
Alternatives Considered
I have used and still use Sketch and Zeplin too, but they serve other purposes for us. Sketch is used to design the components themselves and they are then exported to Zeroheight where they are showcased and enriched with textual information. Zeplin is used to design application pages, and again the components are exported to Zeplin from Sketch. But Zeroheight is mainly used for the development of the components themselves as well as a documentation for our design guideline in general. It is also used by us for design tokens and patterns, as well as other information on the design guideline, so if someone wants to understand the "why" of a design decision, the explanation can be usually found in Zeroheight too.
